Comments on DroidEdit (free code editor) for Android

★★★★★ I thank you team... The features provided in this text editor were and are of great help; when it was much necessary for me. The app works really well; even when offline fully supported. Very good preloaded syntax highlighting/themes. Very good file browsing. Working with Hacker's keyboard app is totally cool. Most of the commonly used desktop text editors' shortcuts are supported. Thank you "Droid Edit".
★★★★★ I install this app on all my devices. If I need to transfer text from one device to another, it's a quick copy and paste away. It's about as nominal as a text editor could be. At $2.50 USD for the ad free version, one little bar sitting at the bottom of the text field is hardly anything to complain about. I've never worked on code with it, but for viewing code, it works just fine. All the functions are there, you just have to find them.
★★☆☆☆ I fail to see why something like this needs an ad banner. I get why there's a pro version, but the buffer of a text editor on a phone screen is really not the place for ads.
★★☆☆☆ This app is very very very very ry ry ry ry ry worst ಆಗ್ಲಿಕ್ಕೆ ಸಾದ್ಯನೇ ಇಲ್ಲ
★★☆☆☆ What a hell???? It is not perfect app. When I open HTML file it does not attach to the classroom 😑 😐 😒 why??? 😡😡🤬
★★☆☆☆ Can't switch keyboard language in this app. And it seems to conflict somehow with Firefox lockwise and wants to unlock it.
